Pharmacy Technician

New Pharmacy Hub. New service. Be part of building something from the start. Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is launching a brand-new pharmacy supply and dispensing service to support our mental health and learning disability wards and community teams across Sussex. Based at our Swandean site in Worthing, this new pharmacy service will strengthen how medicines are supplied across the Trust - improving discharge flow, supporting urgent care services, and enhancing the experience of patients and clinical teams. We are looking for 2 motivated, forward-thinking pharmacy technicians to join us at the beginning of this journey. This is not simply a dispensary role - this is an opportunity to help shape a modern, efficient, patient-focused pharmacy supply model within a specialist mental health Trust. You'll be joining an award-winning pharmacy team that values professional development, innovation and collaboration - and you'll play a key role in ensuring patients receive their medicines safely, efficiently and on time. This is a fantastic opportunity for a pharmacy technician who wants more than routine dispensing - someone who enjoys working autonomously, solving problems, and being part of a service transformation.

• Dispense in-patient, out-patient, short-term leave and discharge prescriptions in line with Trust SOPs
• Support safe and efficient ward stock supply
• Perform final accuracy checking
• Support medicines reconciliation processes and patient own drugs assessments
• Contribute to discharge facilitation and improving patient flow
• Support clozapine clinics and point-of-care testing services
• Maintain safe handling and destruction of Controlled Drugs
• Use electronic prescribing and pharmacy tracking systems accurately
• Participate in audits, quality improvement and service development
• Support and supervise trainee pharmacy technicians and pharmacy assistants
• Fully funded training opportunities (e.g. Psych 1 & 2).
• Opportunities to shape medicines safety initiatives and service development.

Why Join Sussex Partnership?

• Flexible working options to support work-life balance.
• Competitive NHS benefits package (27 days' annual leave + bank holidays, NHS pension).
• Access to wellbeing support including counselling, mindfulness, and staff networks.
• Work in a Trust that values innovation, diversity, and inclusivity.
